ECHA ha individuato 10 sostanze SVHC come prioritarie per l'inserimento nell'allegato XIV di REACH, ovvero nell'elenco delle sostanze soggette ad autorizzazione.
Le sostanze sono tutte cancerogene o tossiche per la riproduzione e usate in applicazioni con potenziale esposizione per il lavoratore.
La decisione finale in merito all'inclusione delle sostanze nell'allegato XIV sarà presa dalla Commissione europea in collaborazione con gli Stati membri e il Parlamento europeo.
